LL, the UK armed police shooting of yet another innocent citizen in London is crap. Utter CRAP. They need to do better.

At the moment they are just as worse as the terrorists.

No way would I like to be confronted by them, I would rather see Osma Bin Laden. At least he may listen to me before killing me.

<Police said Menezes attracted police attention because he left a house that was under surveillance after Thursday's attacks. "He was then followed by surveillance officers to the station. His clothing and his behavior at the station added to their suspicions," officers said. >

Well, being in a house being watched is obviously cause for execution. Fancy wearing a jacket. People should get a list of approved clothing from the police. Behaviour at the station? What precisely? Failing to buy a ticket? Well hell, instant death for that!! Throwing rubbish on the ground maybe? Or planting what could have been a nuclear bomb?

I wonder why the police can't just say exactly what the suspicious actions were.

Maybe it's a state secret. Can't give out confidential information you know.
